assigning drive letters
hi
is there anny way to determin under win 2k wether a drive is called E: or F: in order to set up my dual boot system (linux mandrake) i had to move my office folder i thought the linux partitions would not be recognised, and then drive F: would become E: and office would be ok however i was wrong, it's still recognised and now office 2000 won't open, it won't reinstall and i can't get it to uninstall ( keeps telling me "error 1325 stationary is to short a file name") i figgure if i can change the letter assgned to the drives........

Log on as Administrator. Right click the My Computer icon and select Manage. In the Logical Disk Manager, right click the drive/partition and select "Change Drive Letter/Path... It will show you a list of all available drive letters.
